Coming soon: The Rise of Saint Fox and The Independence

I’m proud to announce that my novel The Rise of Saint Fox and The Independence is forthcoming from Unsolicited Press, with a scheduled release date of June 12, 2018. I’m working with a great team to see this project I’ve poured so much of myself into come to light—and, even more so than seeing my first novel published, am excited about putting the ideas presented in this book out into the world, especially now when the social-political climate parallels the near-future I’ve imagined more than ever.

The Rise of Saint Fox and The Independence is about an underground cryptocurrency movement fronted by a London rock band that gains enough followers to spark a revolution.

In a near-future London, eccentric revolutionary Jenson Jeeves is the leader of the anarcho-capitalist group the Arcane Society. When he recruits a charismatic drifter named Sam to headline a band that serves as a front for the Society, the group’s soaring popularity draws supporters by the thousands.

With the youth of the nation on his side and a biotech weapon that will revolutionize commerce, Jeeves will at last see his plan fulfilled: To reset a corrupt financial system and eliminate the wealth gap—without violence. Or so he believes.

Puppeteered by Jeeves, Sam is more than willing to champion the cause as Saint Fox—the honey-voiced, incendiary idol of the revolution. But before he knows it he’s a wanted criminal, with millions of devoted followers looking to him for their next move.

No war is without casualties.

Over the next few months I’ll be posting more often with updates on the book’s release. My publisher has also recommended requesting readers by offering 50% off the print book upon release in exchange for a book review, so if you’d be interested please feel free to reach out. If you’d like to get in touch for any promotional inquiries or otherwise, please feel free to contact me directly at reyburnfiction [at] gmail.com.

That’s it for now, thanks! Your support means a lot.
